While General Afford is still q COMB

While General Afford is still q compar-
atlvely young man, he distinctly remem-
bers when a school boy the total popUla-
ton Of Texas was less than $4,000. Now
it is over 100000, and if the same ratio
Of increase were preserved tor the next
forty years, Texas would contain q popu-
latlon Of $50, 0OO,0O0. OF course this is i'm
possible, but it is within the domain of
reason and probability that the man row
in middle life viii not be an old man
when the imperial state of Texas will
contain g population of %, 100000 Of peo-
pie.
The General gave the reporter some
further very interesting statistics, com
piled from official data regarding the
INCREASE OF POPULATION
and taxable wealth IN twenty contiguous
counties in North Texas, from Dallas,
north, TO Red river, and west to the
Brazos. The population of this Gordon
Of twenty counties was in 1870, l23 900;
1880, $40, 900; 1886, $4,000. The taxable
weslth in these counties was in 1870,
S27, 900, 900; 1880, 81 100000; 1856,
Sl56, 900, 900. Such phenomenal develop
ment is unheard of il the history of the
world, and it is the part OF wisdom for
ST. Louis to cultivate the most cordial
social and commercial relations with this
Imperial state, which can make OF her the
Imperial city Of the Continent.@

Cardinal Gibbons Speaks Of Its OmIssIom
From Our Constitution.


BALTIMORE, Sept. 81. cardinal Gibbons
laid the cornerstone Of st. Jerome church
in South Baltimore Sunday. He was an
sisted in the ceremonies by the RevA DR..
John s. Foley and Father Gartles. After
the work had been blessed the cardinal
preached a sermon to the immense thronR
on "The 0ver-ruling Providence of God,
and the Government Of the Physical and
Moral World" Among oCRsr things hG
said:
"We should recognize the hand of God
not only in the government Of the physical
universe, but also in the moral government
OF the world Complaints have sometimes
been made in certain quarters that the
name of God does not occur in the constitu-
tion Of the United States, and attempts have
been made to have His hallowed name in
serted in tho charter of our liberties But
we need not be over anxious to have His
name written in the constitution, so long aa
Is inscribed in the hearts of our people,
and especially of our rulers. l would rather
sail under the guidance of an experienced
captain than put my trust in the figure head
at the PROV of the ship; so long as our rulers
recognize the controlling influence Of Provi-
dence in the government of the ship of
state we need not inscribe the name on tho
PROV Of the vessel. But if the trainers of
the constitution did not insert the name Of
God in that instrument they nevertheless
had devout faith in the guidance of a super
intending Providence by whom kings reign
and law-givers decree just things"

MUTINoUs CoNVIcTs.
They Strike for Lighter Tasks and Better
Food.


KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Sept 9S.-For some
reason the full particulars of the mutiny of
the convicts at Coal Greek cannot be OBJ
tanned. The Knoxville Iron company is
very reticsnt about the affair.
Inspector Burrows returned from the
mines Yesterday morning, and says the
troubles have been settled. On last Thurs-
day, at the dinner hour, the convicts refused
to leave the mines. They claimed that the
food was so bad and the tasks so heavy that
they could no longer endure it, and that
they would remain in the mines until better
fare and more humane treatment were
promised
The guards wouA promise nothing, and
the convicts refused to move an inch. Every
effort was made to move them to the stockade
peaceably, but they held out against threats
and entreaties with all the determination
born of desperation. Then, it is said, the
guards fired into the mine, wounding sew
eral negroes, but this is denied.
at any rate, Friday afternoon they shut
off the ventilation, and on Saturday after
noon the convicts yielded to the men. The
closing of the ventilation shaft drove them
to the mouth of the mine, and there they
crowded around the opening, fighting
among themselves for front seats.
They endured the most excruciating tor
ture before giving up, and it is said severa
of them we're entirely exhausted when they
surrendered. Mr.. Burrows states that every
thing is quiet, and that he apprehends no
further trouble
